Elephants are better known for their astonishing feats of memory than for their ability to jump, but they're also physically agile. Amusing questions like the one in the title, as well as important questions, and even a few silly questions that kids are likely to ask are presented with answers that are surprising, intriguing--and occasionally, mind blowing. "Why is the sky blue?" and "What makes the noise of thunder?" both have solid, scientific answers. "What is the worst smelling thing in the world?" might sound like a silly question, but in fact, it has a good, sensible answer. And the question, "Which animal is the deadliest in the world?" has an answer that will surprise just about everybody. Black-and-white line art on most pages.
